5-9-2012 : Yellow jacket(Vespula vulgaris) outworld and nest exposed.[Unedited]

At 1:44 I remove the cover on the wasps nest. The entire setup consist of an outworld, a tube, and a nest container. The tube allows the wasps to walk into the outworld, were they can forage for resources and return with them to the hive. To avoid the wasps becoming to obsessed with the light, you can add 1 or 2 layers of normal writing paper between the light-ramp and the outworld. This will dim the light so much it wont distract the wasps, and still allow you to see clearly.
